I suggest some bubble wrap around the items and then insert into a "tough bag"
available from the post office. Boxes can be expensive if they get the tape measure out to
calculate volume. "Tough Bag" is the way to go.

Please email me at

for more information. Usually takes 3 business days before sending back. I will only
send express post to PO boxes or business address (costs more) otherwise it's registered
post (more secure that way).

steering wheel re-trim in leather. Instructions on how to remove wheel. Airbag removal is
only slightly more involved - more torx screws. Disconnect battery before removing an
airbag.

South Australia is lucky to have Holden Commodores and Mitsubishi Magna's made locally.
There is a lot of expertise in the State. Planetsoarer can now offer Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM) quality leather re-trim of Soarer and Celsior steering wheels (or
any car wheel) for $190 + postage and handling. The quality is exceptional - made by the
same guy who trims the leather wheels for the factory cars. He does the leather wheels on
Commodores, on Magnas and now he's doing Soarers and Celsiors! He doesn't do roof
linings, he doesn't do seats, he is a wheel and gear shifter specialist.

Check out these pics:

The finish is so tight and smooth - I am so happy with the quality. The tan colour is
an excellent match.

The spruce or grey interiors are not exact. There is light grey or dark grey. This is a
light grey rim on my spruce steering pad. I have seen a dark grey interior which
would be good for dark grey, and a light grey spruce and a darker green spruce. All very
confusing! This is what I would call a darker green spruce horn pad. It is from a Limited
V8. I have seen twin turbos with a lighter grey spruce - maybe is the sun? Beats me - but
it's not straight forward.

Light grey rim and tan trim.

Notice the change in hue for the light grey rim to the more greener spruce horn pad. On
top is the light grey handbrake cover. Different lighting conditions make it look
different. Two people I have shown reckon the light grey is a good match for the spruce
and that the dark grey would be a bit too dark. Light grey is a bit too light, dark grey
is a bit too dark.

Light grey rim in a spruce V8 limited. Direct sun, shadows, flash - all change the
appearance of the colours.

Light grey on left with smooth stitch, spruce on right with original stitch.

Nice new leather on left versus shiny worn leather on right.

Most original wheels I have seen are now worn smooth - the new leather is grained much
like the steering pad. New leather feels so much better than old leather or old leather
repainted. The smell and the feel is, well it's like new! The colour is not
exact but it is acceptable. The Spruce colour is slightly darker than original but looks
great.

I prefer this style of stitching - it gives a smoother finish and looks more stylish
than the stock, simpler "baseball" style stitching. If you look at your stock
Celsior or Soarer wheel you will see the stock stitching is bumpy and gathers the leather
more. You can specify original style stitching or this type of stitching. There are
several colours to choose from besides the stock tan, black and Spruce colours. Suede is
also available for circuit racing - Suede offers much more grip. Two colour is also
available for a little extra. The $190 is a change over price. Sometimes I have available
a changeover wheel for a refundable deposit - most times I'll need your wheel first and
I'll send it back in three days. If you really need a changeover wheel then contact me
first - Depending on where the changeover wheel is, I can send you one in your colour,
then you can send me your wheel after you have fitted the new one and I'll refund the
deposit. The deposit for a changeover wheel is $120 refundable.

stitching style - original baseball stitching or newer smooth style stitching. Click here and scroll down to see original stitching

and if you want a new matching handbrake cover and gear shifter ( the shifter is
probably best done in original style stitching? It is the same as the steering wheel but
smaller stitches - think about if you want matching stitching for both wheel and shifter)

Click here to see pics of the handbrake shifter kit and
gearshift recovered in matching leather.

I only have limited steering wheels for Celsior and Soarer to changeover - most times
it's easier to send me your wheel and I'll send it back within three days. Four bolts to
remove them. The cable can be removed by bending back the tab carefully to release the
cable from the guide.

Payment is by PayPal, direct deposit, or money order.

Any steering wheel can be done, (even genuine Max Rob 13 inch black Mad Max
wheels for your old Ford.....), not just Soarer and Celsior.
